The most widely used safety/security mirror style. Convex circular mirrors are perfect for the majority of applications. These mirrors allow for a 160-degree wide-field viewing area. Their unique shape and construction permits a quick installation on either the wall or ceiling. Available sizes: 12", 18", 26", 30" and 36". The 18” and 26” models come standard with a molded back.
In/Outdoor mirrors include a weather-treated hardboard backing and are trimmed with a vinyl rim. These mirrors should be used in areas with moderate wind and weather conditions (loading docks, etc.).
Safety/security mirrors are made with either 1/8" thick shatterproof acrylic or unbreakable polycarbonate. Acrylic mirrors are recommended for 90% of all applications. Polycarbonate mirrors are recommended for heavy-duty applications. These materials are far superior to glass mirrors for several reasons.
- Clarity - The optics of Acrylic and Polycarbonate are almost identical. Typically, Acrylic has a 20% brighter image than glass
- Resistance to breakage - Acrylic is 10-14 times more resistant to breakage than glass. Polycarbonate is 30 times more impact resistant than glass.
- Light Weight - Acrylic is less than half the weight of glass making it less expensive to ship and easier to install.
- Safety - Acrylic protects bystanders from injury. Even when subjected to high impact blows, acrylic (unlike glass) breaks into large, dull edged pieces that disperse at a low velocity. Polycarbonate is also fire resistant. All mirrors meet OSHA safety requirements.
